Christmas !



Always a busy time of year but a lot of fun with friends and family. Here are some highlights. 



Christmas in SoCal. 



















Then off to Indiana where we spent a couple days in Lafayette and the remainder of the week in Indianapolis. It was COLD and a bit snowy but great to see everyone. 

In Lafayette: 







Some Christmas caroling with Nano on the piano: 






At the Indy Children's Museum

(See if you can spot Ellie and Anne)











Cousin movie time! 






The SoCal kids get a taste of what 5 degrees feels like ( although 
I still like to think of them has hearty New Englanders) 





Saw a cool model train exhibit (Jingle Rails) at the Eiteljorg Museum. Amazing level of detail and all hand crafted. 









By the way, great to spend time with this guy - can't believe he is 1.

Ellie had an ice skating party at the local ice palace. So thankful for all the friends and family that were able to celebrate with us. 
























Finally after 6 months of hearing about Hatchimals - we are the proud owner of one!! I am not sure what it is or what it does but we were all captivated by the hatching.
